Anthony Butterfield is self taught and has been painting for more than
20 years. He has studied the arts of The Ancient Masters and
accommodates some of their techniques into his own paintings.
He works with oils, which he applies to the reverse side of glass to
create the finished painting. Anthony spent many years in the
perfection of this technique, which brings luminosity to the images
created. The results represent an extended life journey reflecting
tremendous experiences through to his current work. Anthony is willing
to take commissions for paintings.

Sara Philpott graduated from the Central School of Art and Design,London,
in 1984.Her paintings are shown mainly in London and in selected Welsh
galleries,and her work with private presses such as Gwasg Gregynog and
the Old Stile Press features in public and private collections worldwide.
Based upon the belief that the most valuable qualities in life are those
which cannot easily be seen,only felt:the artist works in the hope that by so
scrutinising the visible world,the invisible might be revealed.
The work teeters on the tight rope between the aspiration of the way things
could be and the way things appear to be in reality.Depicting the natural
world,the work is made with thin veils of intensely pigmented traditional
oil colours.
